Pitch

The magazine which I am going to make is for the hip hop genre of music, for males, because research has shown more men read the magazines,  and the age from 18-25, this age because of my research has shown that this is the main market for the magazine industry, this would because they have the most disposable income and mainly most in tune with the current style and scene for music, and with the hip hop scene changing all the time i thought this would be the right target audience, this would then have an effect on the way the magazine is designed and how it flows, from the formality of the text, to the colour which is used, i.e. neon bright explosive colour don’t need to be used to attract the attention of the audience like in children magazines, the age range have a more mature look on music, but still want to know the latest gossip and what’s happening in the hip hop world.

The colour which is going to be used is the typical red black and white, this will only be for the font, not the colours of the images, because the boldness and the outgoing colours of the hip hop fashion have to be shown throughout the magazine.

The images which will be used will mainly be mid shots of the person, not to much going on in the image, I want the image to mean something, if the background had to much going on then it would take it away from the image and the meaning behind it, the image has to have meaning and be very specific to the article which the image will be promoting.

The Masthead will be outgoing to establish the magazine, and be able to stand out from all the other hip hop magazines out there, it wont be plastered all over the front cover, it might be hidden slightly not to take it away from the image and the look of the front cover
